Audible should offer a “end -to -end” AI production technology – including translation and narration – to publishers to create audio books. The audio book company explained that it will work with publishers to produce audio books using AI at all points in the process.
Audible said that he “would combine his experience in producing audio stories with AMAZON AI technology“To produce audio books. The company explained that, in the coming months, publishers interested in the process could choose one of the two production routes.
Publishers can choose to let audible manage all audio production, from ingestion of initial text to the published audio book, for certain titles; Alternatively, publishers can use the self-service production option, where they will have access to the same underlying technology while managing their own production process (independently producing audio books).
Audible added that Publishers will be able to choose from more than 100 votes generated by AI in English, Spanish, French and Italian, with several options of accent and dialect through the two lanes, adding that they can access vocal upgrades for their titles as technology develops.
